Book Overview

""Puritan's Daughter"" is a novel written by Michael William Balfe and published in 1869. Set in the 17th century, the story revolves around the life of Alice Maynard, the daughter of a stern Puritan minister. Alice is a beautiful and intelligent young woman who is torn between her love for a young soldier, Ralph, and her duty to her father and religion. As Alice struggles to reconcile her desires with her beliefs, she is also faced with the challenges of a society that is deeply divided by religious and political differences. She witnesses the persecution of Catholics and the execution of King Charles I, events that shake her faith and force her to question her allegiances. Throughout the novel, Balfe explores themes of love, loyalty, faith, and freedom, and provides a vivid portrayal of a tumultuous period in English history. The book is a compelling and thought-provoking read that offers a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people caught up in extraordinary times.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
